[PATCH-for-4.14 1/2] xen: fix build with CONFIG_HYPFS_CONFIG enabled

[Juergen Gross]

Commit 58263ed7713e ("xen: add /buildinfo/config entry to hypervisor
filesystem") added a dependency to .config, but the hypervisor's build
config could be have another name via setting KCONFIG_CONFIG.

Fix that by using $(KCONFIG_CONFIG) instead. Additionally reference
the config file via $(XEN_ROOT) instead of a relative path.

[PATCH-for-4.14 2/2] xen/config: disable hypervisor filesystem for pv-shim

[Juergen Gross]

The pv-shim doesn't need the hypervisor filesystem, so disable it.

Looking at all pre-existing uses of KCONFIG_CONFIG this is the
first one assuming it holds a relative path. The doc also doesn't
indicate it can't be an absolute one.

This is not an objection to this patch right?

I can see his point.

In case KCONFIG_CONFIG is set to an absolute path the result won't
build.

The proper solution would be to test KCONFIG_CONFIG for being an
absolute path and do the prefixing of $(XEN_ROOT)/xen/ only if this
isn't the case.

I'll send V2 of this patch.
